Running to bed is a thing around here as well...when the day is done and the work is done and there is nothing left to do but relax, well...that just puts me right in the mood to sleep lol.
Lots of different footwear for different purposes, but nothing beats a good pair of boots. We used to have a friend that rode his Harley with short pants and cowboy boots lol...he was so damned big that no one messed with him.
